Single Sign on between Azure AD and SAP Cloud Platform

Jun 02, 2017 at 08:33 PM|317 Views

Hi All,

I recently configured the SSO between the SAP Cloud Platform and Azure AD.

When i try to access the SAP Cloud Portal, the url is redirected to the AZURE AD authentication and it successfully validates and returns me a valid SAML response with the GivenName/Surname/emailaddress/name. However i am still getting the SAP cloud login authentication dialog box.

what configuration should i do to make sure that my AZURE authentication is used properly and the cloud platform does not popup the user authentication dialog box.

If possible, it is also recommended to use the SAML tracer extension for either chrome or firefox in order to see what happens the SAML token throughout the authentication process and to see why you get directed to the login page instead of being signed in.

How do i make sure that SCP uses the authentication token which was sent by Azure and not popup the user authentication dialog box? because if i have to authenticate twice then what is the point of single sign on?
